Voice Recognition for Linux

[Chris Hayes]

Hi - I was wondering whether anyone here might know about what voice
recognition software is currently available for Linux. I'm asking because my
dad has both physical impairments and dyslexia - and the only thing that's
stopping him from being able to use Linux is lack of voice recognition
software for it.

Due to this, my dad isn't really part of any of the Linux 'communities' yet
- and the reason I subscribed to this mailing list was so that I could keep
an ear to the ground, in case anything came up.  But so far, there was
really only a short thread about virtual machines and text injection.

He does have a website however, and has started a kind of discussion thread
on that - which is available through this link
http://www.hi2u.org/discussions/voice4linux.htm

If anyone has had any experience with voice recognition software under Linux
or knows of any information about it - could you please post something about
it on my dad's discussion page about it - or, if not - just reply to this
telling me so I can do it.

Thanks so much for reading this post - I'm hoping that some of you people
might know something that may help my dad to be able to use Linux at some
point.
